Carl Weathers, linebacker-turned-actor who starred in 'Rocky' movies and 'The Mandalorian,' dies
International superstar Carl Weathers talks with SYFY Wire about directing episodes of The Mandalorian, diversity in the Star Wars universe, and making things up. Arnold Schwarzenegger led celebrities paying tribute to Rocky star Carl Weathers this week following his death aged 76. Carl Weathers, a former NFL linebacker who became a Hollywood action movie and comedy star, playing nemesis-turned-ally Apollo Creed in the “Rocky” movies, has died. American actor Carl Weathers has died at the age of 76 [File: Lilly Lawrence/AFP]. New Orleans-born actor Carl Weathers always wanted to be an actor, but in his early years, he started off as a successful football star, playing with the Oakland Raiders.
Actor Carl Weathers Dead At 76
Chester and Gerald Irons eventually went into business after their playing careers were done; Carl Weathers, who was there to take home a puppy he would name Cherry Kijafa, was an up-and-coming actor who had some small roles in television shows such as Good Times, The Six Million Dollar Man and Kung Fu, and had aspirations of hitting the big time. Growing up in New Orleans, Weathers had thought about acting ever since a teacher, Mr. Slush, gave him a role in a play the teacher had written himself. The role had a singing number; Weathers loved it. When the crowd laughed after a joke or cheered on cue after a perfectly delivered line, it gave him something.
Even as a grown man in an NFL locker room, that feeling—and that need to chase it—persisted. Fifty years later, the athlete turned actor sees parallels in how he found success in two of the most competitive occupations in the world. His drive is fueled by a need to survive and a fear of what will happen if he gives in. That mindset propelled him from New Orleans to a pro football career in Oakland and eventually Hollywood.
But before that, he was Carl Weathers, undrafted linebacker. His NFL career lasted only two years. And, to this day, he remembers the words spoken to him by a legendary coach that ended it. From football to gymnastics to, yes, boxing, his obsession with the drawing applause and approval he received through competition and performance fueled him in every endeavor.
By the time he got his athletic scholarship to St. Augustine High School, he performed in nonunion productions in choirs and with bands across New Orleans.

Главным тренером той команды был известный тренер Дон Корьелл, который в 80-е поставит на уши всю НФЛ своим воздушным нападением в «Сан-Диего Чарджерс». Уэзерс уже тогда считал актёрское ремесло своим любимым и параллельно с футбольными матчами участвовал в театральных пьесах и защитил диплом в области театрального искусства. На драфте НФЛ Уэзерс, несмотря на неплохие данные 188 см, 100 кг , выбран не был, но сумел пробиться в состав «Окленд Рейдерс». В сезоне-1970 — первом, когда объединились лиги НФЛ и АФЛ — он принял участие в 7 матчах уже на позиции лайнбекера и помог «Рейдерс» выиграть дивизион, а также добраться до финала конференции. Главный тренер «Рейдерс» Джон Мэдден перед сезоном-1971 перевёл Уэзерса на позицию стронг-сейфти, но в сентябре отчислил со словами: «Ты просто слишком чувствительный».
My wife and I had the best times with him every time we saw him. His most famous film role was that of boxer Apollo Creed in the Rocky franchise. Image: Weathers and Stallone in 2016. In high school, athletics took him down another path but he would reunite with his first love later in life. You needed some smarts because there were playbooks to study and film to study, to learn about the opposition on any given week.
